We describe how a Hispanic Serving Institution (HSI) "enrolling" educational institution can transform its practices to embrace and include student voices and become HSI "affirming and thriving" by focusing on the introductory semester-long public-speaking course as a site for liberatory learning outcomes and by using digital…

This study explored the association between cumulative ecological risk and academic achievement among adolescents from economically disadvantaged families and the mediating role of coping style and moderating effect of grit on this relationship. We recruited a sample of 509 students from economically disadvantaged families (classified as below the…

A high level of school absence has persisted across many countries since the COVID-19 pandemic. We use English data to investigate how local health and social regulations affected pupil absence rates during the pandemic and whether this pupil absence had a causal impact on school attendance and academic progress in future years. We find that more…

Using data from 12 public universities in North Carolina over a 4-year period, we assess how principal intern characteristics and internship experiences predict entry into the school leader labor market as an assistant principal. In line with prior research, we found that a sizable number of interns never enter school leadership. Furthermore,…
